usb-storage: use max_hw_sectors instead of max_sectors
This patch (as1347) makes some adjustments to the way usb-storage handles the request-queue parameters. USB host controllers are able to handle arbitrarily long scatter-gather lists, since they are limited only by main memory and not by the controller hardware. Hence the sg_tablesize field in the host template can be increased to the maximum value. Drivers like usb-storage aren't supposed to touch the queue's max_sectors parameter; instead they are supposed to use the max_hw_sectors value. Accordingly, the patch replaces calls of queue_max_sectors() with calls of queue_max_hw_sectors(). Oddly enough, the blk_queue_max_sectors() routine is nevertheless still appropriate. The existing code imposes a limit of SCSI_DEFAULT_MAX_SECTORS (1024) on the values accepted by the max_sectors attribute file. There's no reason not to accept larger values, so the limit is removed. (It would be nice to change the file's name to max_hw_sectors, but the old name is already a well-established API.)
